After going to the Reverie Theater from Moonlight Grove, James will find Laura running towards Brookhaven Hospital. This will be the next main area in Silent Hill 2 Remake, and it features a bunch of puzzles and items for players to loot. One such puzzle, however, can be slightly more challenging than others.

Upon entering the Reception Office, players will find a padlock with a key inside. Uncovering the code for said padlock can be difficult. Luckily, for those struggling, this guide includes all the details on how to use the paintings to figure out the code and proceed forward in Silent Hill 2 Remake.

Solutions for the Padlock puzzle will vary depending on the game's chosen difficulty.

Reception Office Padlock Code In Silent Hill 2 Remake

The Padlock in the Reception Office is right next to the Save Point. After looting the Office for any Handgun Ammo or health items, pick up the Key Locker Note, which mentions Examination Room 3. Pick up the map from the Lobby and follow it to the hallway on your right. The door to the room will be locked, so use your Metal Pipe to break the window and jump in. Head into the room on your right to find the Nurse's Memo inside a drawer.

The Memo mentions Nurses, Doctors, and Trees in that order.

There are Balloons in one of the apartments in Wood Side Apartments, and shooting them gives players a trophy/achievement. Here is how to find them.

Go back to the Lobby to find three paintings. Each painting shows a specific number of people or objects. Note them down and use them to open the Padlock. The numbers required to open the Padlock are as follows:

  • 287 (Easy Mode)
  • 724 (Standard Mode)
  • 152 (Hard Mode)

Inside, you can find the Basement Key, which lets you explore the lower section of Brookhaven Hospital.

There are no enemies throughout this small section, so you can figure out the code without worrying about dealing with the Lying Figures.
